Yeah, such a loser!!! used only 2 rolls after 1 YEAR!!! can someone kill me! lol.. so much for talking nonsense in my previous post, this roll is so terribleeeeeeeee.. i feel so embarrassed to even upload the ugly ones. lol.. and i can't seem to upload the nice ones. HAHA. so i'll update here another time .

I have decided. i will use my Diana F+ flash instead of Fisheye's internal flash from now on - to get rid of that ugly shadow cast by the lens.

I will bring my Fisheye Camera every where i go from tmr onwards! HAHA. (like real, waste my space and waste money to develop sia) HAHA. Ok, bye! OH. i just went to Hokkaido Fair at TM, and bought the 白い恋人 Chocolat Blanc Et Langue De Chat Japanese Cookies. YAY! OK, BYE!

Bad. used wrong setting.

--#1 LAZY JOHN
Night / Long shutter / No Flash / Single Exposure
One for the couch-surfers who prefer a life of fancy leisure. Once the sun goes down, select the “B” setting and hold down the shutter release. As long as you keep it pressed, the shutter will stay open. Place the camera on a steady surface and hold the button for 1 to 5 seconds for crisp, dreamy low-light shots. Move the camera around for wild, streaky, abstract images.


#2 SALTY SINGLE
Night / Long shutter / Internal Flash / Single Exposure
Like the Lazy John, set your camera to “B” at night. Activate the internal flash. Hold down the release for a few seconds while you move, spin, turn, flip, and rotate your camera (or yourself). You’re burning a lot of pretty light onto the film while you do this. After a bit of time has passed, aim your camera at a close subject and release the button. The internal flash will fire – freezing your subject in crisp light against a streaky, gorgeous, and completely bananas background.

#3 CARRIBEAN COLORS (1-2/8)
Night / Long shutter / Internal & Hotshoe Flash / Single Exposure
Hey mon, dis de fiyah yah be wantin! Toss a Lomographic Colorsplash Flash onto the hotshoe – and charge it along with the internal flash. Get your subject in range and fire the shutter on “B.” Immediately, the hotshoe shoots a burst of colored light at them. Keep the shutter open for a few seconds and release to fire the internal flash. With the hotshoe flash firing first and the internal flash firing second, you’ve captured the movement and moodswings between these two points in time.

#6 DIANA'S DREAM (1-2/8)
Day or Night / Long or Fast shutter / Flash or No Flash / Multiple Exposure
Upside down you turning me! Shoot an image straight on and then press the multiple exposure button. Now, staying in the same spot, turn your Fisheye 2 180-degrees and shoot again. It's like one half of the world walked to the other and said “whassup”. Use the internal or hotshoe flash to fire it up even hotter!

This is just a random post, just some thoughts that had been in my mind for months.. Please do not get offended, or dun bother reading cos it's a lengthy post.

It's just that, technology really advances so quickly.

I remember one of my biggest regret when i went to Philippines for school trip in 2008, was not owning a Polaroid Camera then. So because of that, i decided to get it after i return to Singapore - proof.

I dun like how everything advances so fast, that the simplicity in life just disappears. I know that i need to grow up, and all these gotta come to past. Ok, i'm just gonna rant in the next few paragraphs and not let my logical mind take over.

Some may think that Facebook is a good way to connect with people, but seriously, how much can it really connect people? I saw a group of my sec sch classmates at TM food court last saturday night, i wasn't close with them in sch in the first place, yet they're on my Facebook list. i dunno, but it just felt so awkward to talk to them. so gotta act blur.

I still prefer e olden days, not that i'm very old.... but writing letters to one another, instead of emailing/sms-ing/whatsapp-ing.. i just feel that my brain is damn useless. not doing anything and depending all on the internet and etc.. You dun have much freedom as before, get it? with people stalking ur Facebook/twitter/blog, where's the sense of privacy? but no matter how much u try to privatize it, does it really help? =/

I dun see how the title of this post links anyway...

Oh, i really really really wish that The Impossible Project will quickly develop films for the authentic Polaroid camera! i don't like to use the films that needs to be stored at 5-21 degrees, or have to cover once you press the shutter, or you still need to keep in some dry kit / silica to store your films. I wish they brought back the original films, but they can't :(

I dun like the ignorance of people who dunno the history of polaroid cameras, yet calling their Fuji Instax Films - the Polaroid Films. yeah, i'm kinda cocky.. but this is the truth, i don't like it! All i can say is, i regretted not buying more films back then to use, haha! also not cheap lor, $18/box of 10 last time!

Now that ev'one's crazy over instant cameras, i shall head over to new green pastures..

Oh, i shall be silly and send letters out to people since i'm also heading to the post office later.. :)
